I found this in a 1997 edition of Pillsbury's Fast and Healthy Magazine. DH loves lemon and I have no idea why I have not tried this one. It sounds wonderful.

This tart was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I would recommend it to others who enjoy sweet desserts.

The crust was a bit too crumbly for my taste. I would recommend using a different recipe for the crust.
